After he finished his dinner he pushed
his chair back, took hold of my hands,
and pulled me down on his lap. Then
lie put his arm around my waist,
caresSed me, and patted me On the
face"
well, what did he say to yOu?"
'Oh, he said | was awful nice. and L
can't tell what else, but that was about
the giSt of it,
She added that he proposed something
improper. She then claimed that she
granted his request, after which they
went into the sitting room.
''fIe then said" she continued, ''that
he must he going, and he put his arm
around my waist and we walked to the
door, when he kissed me again and then
left.'
She further stated that she played on
the piano about an hour, and then went
home, meeting her husband on the way.
She said that, after she had told Billings
all about what had taken place between
herself and Kingsley, Billings told her
that
WAS ALL RIGHT,
that if she would promise not to see
Kingsley again or have anything of
criminal nature to do with Kingsley, he
(BillingS) would let the whole matter
drop and never say anything to Kings
ley about it. She said her husband was
not angry with her, and everything
went along pleasantly after that. She
states that she knew nothing of the
papers found on her husbands person
at the time of his arrest. She testified
that her husband made out papers con-
veying all his property to her few days
before the tragedy, saying that if any
accident should happen TO him she
would not have to go into court to prove
her claim to all his worldly possessions.
She impressed all who heard her teSti
mOny that she was a remarkably Shrewd
woman, and left the idea with the jury
that she was in the scheme with her
husband to entrap Kingsley and work
him for his property and salary as
county attorney. Two of the witnesses
examined during the first few days
of the trial made statements
which were proven to be false
and their testimony was thrown
out. Since then they have requested to
testify again. One of them is the au-
thor of a note found on Kingsley's per-
son, which the Shane girl had given
Kingsley at the time she absOlved
Kingsley from having wrOnged her, and
which was sent her by one of these wit
neSSeS at BllllngS request. Emma
Shane, the Young lady who is somewhat
connected with the scandal leading TO
KingSley'S shooting, testified when first
brought on the stand that she received
note signed b. b.. from Fred Clark,
for her to meet him and Billings at
Browns office. She also testified that
this note was delivered by Silas Coates.
Clark and Coates denied ever having
had anything to do with this note.
OthePevidence was brought to prove
that they had, and they were much
alarmed when they found that they had
been detected in an untruth. They
were admitted to give their testimony
again to-day and they made clean
breast of it. Clark testified to-day that
he wrote the nete and that Coates de-
livered it. Coates says the same. Sher
